I mean sure but that's not what GP is saying. GP is purely laying into gambling by itself.

That's where my question arises.

I'm specifically laying into people getting rich off of other people gambling and making a business out of it. If a group of friends wants to play poker, or if the Axie platform was a co-op owned by all of the players (and no 20% dev stake like most premined cryptocurrencies) I'd say "eh, it's their choice". But making money off of hooking into and pushing our vices is something I personally disagree with.

Sure but what about the folks that run casinos, pachinko parlors, mahjongg dens, card clubs, horse race betting owners, claw machine owners, etc, etc. There's a _lot_ of gambling around the world and it's the owners' job to market these gambling houses. Why are these crypto scams so deleterious when there's probably an order of magnitude more people gambling their money away in more traditional gambling houses designed to keep you inside, fed, and spending money for as long as possible? Is your position that all gambling like this should be run by the state?

By the state or by private individuals without profiting and without advertising. I'm also in support of banning loot boxes in commercial games like we've seen in some European countries.

Again, the problem isn't gambling. The problem is people making money off of pushing people to gamble more than they'd do naturally.

Are you talking about reggieband or igorkraw? I was referring to the former.
